[@FizziiDx]

To this day Looney Toons - Sheep Raider is one of the most thought provoking video games I have ever played. The visuals were gorgeous and the level progression required so much critical thinking, this is my first time seeing it represented in a PSX list. Such an underrated game.

[@Azizi1163]

yea me to, its a great game and a hard one too especially if ur a 10 year old kid when i was playing it the first time :D

[@anthonyhollywood2828]

I remember having a blast playing looney tunes there was so much to do in it it was a long and sometimes hard game with a good story unlike games today they are pure trash they could learn a thing or 2 from psx games but they are too dumb

[@imraneyubov1]

that game is wesome ost is also great

[@i_am_dementia9926]

I've heard nothing but positive things about this game. I'll give it a try

I was expecting to see some titles I have forgotten that have been bugging me for the longest time... This list, did not disappoint.

[@SonuKumar-ko9js]

By ch CD fy4

[@JoaoAgile]

This video basically sums up why I love the PlayStation.

[@wileyschmitt]

And though most of these games are good, still only a few of them would crack the PS1's top 100 games list. The Super Nintendo/Famicom and PS1 to me is a toss up for best system ever.

[@ajsingh4545]

I looked these games up and lot of them got mixed reviews, even from back in the day. I picked out some of the best one that narrows it down to less than 100. Def not underrated titles. There is a reasons they are obscure and def not the better of PS1.

[@wileyschmitt]

@@davidaitken8503 For a debut system the PS1 did a pretty damn good job, and the game library is massive, but the Super Famicom is better, but for me they're equal simply because of the RPGs.

[@ZyFanatic]

I agree. But i stray from the PS3

[@zerocal76]

Broo blast-from-the past! I commented here 4 yrs ago when I first started my retro game collection. Now I have close to 1,500 games 😎 Started my shiz w your guidance sensei 😁 grazie 👍

[@GaryRetroGamer]

OMG - wow! SUPER THANKS for the Super thanks! Much appreciated! And also - I am super happy to know this channel helped someone start something great. You just made my day, kind person! 1500 games is amazing...maybe time to start your own channel?

[@SpikeSpiegelSpacecowboy]

Thanks for uploading this video. Ps1 gave me really good memories. Silent Bomber, Bloody Roar and Crisis Beat were some of my fav games

[@_Jo_C_]

Geez silent bomber! That game was mind blowing

[@wishiwassleeping8382]

I loved Bloody Roar back in the day

[@friedmanok5528]

:31 Battle Hunter. My brothers and I used to play these game. Glad to see that other people also plays this.

[@nonyabizz9390]

#36, Evil Zone. A fighting game that used ONE button. Triangle was every attack! And it was genius. Best $5 I ever spent. Got it at Media Play when they were going out of business! #53 Jade Cocoon was also great. Never got far (someone "borrowed" my copy a week after I bought it!) but I loved what I saw. And #93! Trap Gunner! I was actually worried the list would miss it! This game was a blast! I've always preferred single player games, and this was one of the few multi-player games I would break out and play with friends.

[@dragonbaka1]

I thought Im the only one I know that liked evilzone :D now I know most of peepz really loved that game

[@MezzoForte4]

I got Evil Zone for free. It's a goofy ass game but it's so fun.

[@ulyx9804]

Similar to Smash bros. It was made to have 2 buttons that control every move in combo with a directional button.

[@MauZangetsu]

2:51 SOMEONE ELSE REMEMBERS DRAGON VALOR, IT HAS BEEN YEARS BUT SOMEONE REMEMBERS IT

[@igorbilbija6593]

My all-time favourite game! Still have an original copy and play it from time to time. Shame it didn't get the credit it deserved and we didn't get a sequel or a spiritual successor.

[@MihzvolWuriar]

Played a lot of these, still have most of then, Wargames Defcon 1, Bust a Groove, Speed Punks, Rosco McQueen, but hey, where's G-Police? It's the best PS1 game for me, and it's very little known, if there's an underrated game in PS1, that's the one

[@dastanbastan9621]

I still can't believe that people does not realizing just how advanced the graphics in Evil Zone and Kensei Sacred Fist is compare to like 98% other PS1 games.

[@RKNELIAS]

yeeah but evil zone gets boring really fast.

[@TheKrisRose]

Not really,evil zone had one of the most well done story mode ever...dub aside,this game came out before the craze for anime in the 90's early 00's..and it had everything you wanted as a kid..spectacular moves,cool looking chars and cheesy dialogues..

[@aignatiusamo4257]

Evil zone rocks, it my time its graphics were awesome

[@MezzoForte4]

I won a gift card at a local game shop and I bought Evil Zone, only knowing about the funny dubbing. My face melted at how 90s the story mode was, became an instant hit with me. It's so goofy.

[@nancestpasmoi1834]

it was the first game to had the cinematic of the ultimate attack change when beat the ennemy

[@FossiMatteo]

Love to see Herc’s Adventures, Sheep Dog and Motor Toon Grand Prix. Games I would mention: The Raiden Project, T’ai Fu: Wrath of the Tiger, Street Racer and Jumping Flash

[@filiberto9729]

Oh men, T'ai Fu great memories I played a lot in my childhood.

[@ze_chooch]

I was addicted to gundam battle assault

[@kheifzealchy5643]

I suck so bad at it but it was fun

Saw it in the thumbnail, had to click

thank you so much i had this image in my head of this game i remember playing that i loved and did not know the name, it was Blast Chamber thank you for making this!

[@animablu1296]

Gary,many compliments for your videos:i always have good time.But i think,they need one more second,between one videogame,and the other,to appreciate them completely.Thank you,have a good day.

[@GaryRetroGamer]

+Gandalf Il Grigio Thanks for the kind words and feedback! A few others have said the same thing - that 6 seconds is not enough; the problem is that I work in 10 minutes pieces. Most of my viewers are people who prefer a 10 minute maximum. Having said that, I recently posted a "Top 50 N64 In 10 Minutes" which means I doubled the time to a generous 12 seconds per video! Please check it out and let me know if you prefer this

[@R0n1n760]

WOW.. the games I found on this list that I wanted are actually very pricey :( . Awesome video as always! So I've always wondered, do you play all these and record a piece of each game?!? If so you must have a huuge collection that is pretty EPIC

[@GaryRetroGamer]

Yes, in 99% of these cases, either myself or one of my team is playing these - and we are capturing these ourselves. So, most of the time, when you see that awful gameplay? Yep, that's me. I don't actually own most of them personally; I am fortunate to have some very well stocked collectors in my social circle that are able to provide me with many of the rarer titles!

[@sad_doggo2504]

Wow I can't believe I was actually able to find the name of the game I was looking for on this list! Good video

[@retrosoul8770]

Coming from your other 100 PS1 games video I forgot how many great obscure games the system had, just amazing.

[@techsequence1195]

One time I bought Future Cop L.A.P.D (#40) after playing the demo. This game was awesome and still would recommend it (campaign / co-op as well as well-designed VS mode which could last for an hour). True challenging masterpiece. To this list I would add Soviet Strike. You had to make strategic choices during the missions, eg. if going back for few fuel tanks / ammo was necessary risking urgent hostage rescue. The real time mission cut-scenes depending on your actions made the blood pumping.

[@GaryRetroGamer]

Agreed on both counts!

[@blaster5800]

This is literally THE BEST "hidden gems" video for the Ps1 I have ever seen. Almost every title is an awesome game

[@RelevantMacaroon]

Oh...My God.... it’s taken me almost 2 decades but I think Blaster Master was the game I’d been searching and trying to remember. Thank You

[@nomadicmonkey3186]

03:54 OMG I finally obtained the Holy Grail of my childhood gaming memories I've sought for years... So it's called Future Cop LAPD! I was looking for this title for quite a long time to no avail. In my country this game is so obscure that I've never heard anybody talk about it online or IRL, and I actually didn't buy it either as I played this on a demo disc I used to have as a child but never got around to buying the product. I even forgot the title, all I had was some vague impressions of gameplay like it was an isometric shooter involving walking mechs, counter-terrorist force and stuff. Despite having never bought it then somehow I grew more and more curious about it years later but haven't been able to find any information of it. I'm really glad I stumbled upon this video. Thanks a lot!

[@zerocal76]

Thank you for all the time and effort you put into this man! I prefer old school games, really appreciate it!

[@antistiolabeo8950]

As soon as I saw Alien Resurrection in the beginning I knew this would be a nice list. Criminally underrated horror sci-fi game. Still one of the scariest I played.

[@numaorus]

I spent a lot of my childhood on Battle Hunter. I still break it out once in a while, I'd love to see a sequel.

[@shanesimmons3989]

I genuinely thought I was the only person who ever played it.

[@vangazon]

Wow. So many great games here. I had a lot of ps1 games probably over 200 back in the days and still happy to see that I owned 3 out of 100 of these games. I beat Strikers 1945 2 but failed to beat C12 Final Resistance and Castlevania.. I also remember skipping school to play Future Cop and PanzerBandit with my best bud.. I hope you make part 2 of this. i would love to add Nuclear Dawn and Brave Fencer Musashi though I'm not sure if they are rare or not.

[@mikejenkins4924]

I actually played quite a few of these. At least in Spain they weren't as hidden by the looks of it. The days when you just bought a game because you liked the cover.

I remeber demo on psx before i and my bro get full wersion. It have 2 min time limit fot first stage. It was full level but after 2 min it end. So me and my bro start training together to beat that 2 min. We make a plans strategies that make us like two men swat team. Each one whit diffrent objectives to acomplish, and we get so good that we not only beat that 2 min but we go under 1:40. Good times.

Sadly, Alien Resurrection came out late in the PS1's life cycle -so it didn't get much press. I loved it - it was genuinely scary, too. One of the most graphically impressive PS1 games!

[@meecob]

Some great games here that I'd completely forgotten about. Cheers

[@rpgfreak9999]

My sister forever had a "Beyond the Beyond" case that didn't have the actual game disc in it. :( I remember a few of these. Most rare one here that I played was Blast Radius, up there with DRAGON VALOR!

[@Horzuhammer]

Great list. So many good games + many that look like I've got to give 'em a whirl! *Bishi Bashi Special* might just be the greatest video game ever to play when you're getting drunk. :D Soo soo many night's it gave me & my friends joy when we were in our '20s. I take it that you're American or something, since you featured *Kurushi* / *Intelligent Qube.* That game came on pretty much every single Demo disc that you got with your PlayStation over here in Europe, so for us it's anything but hidden. It's a gem alright though. IMO one of the greatest games on the system. Also *Team Buddies* was advertised like crazy over here. *Sentinel Returns* looks like it could be a sequel to the old 8-bit game called Sentinel. That's really cool. At least *Blaster Master - Blasting Again, Carnage Heart, Defcon 5, Nanotek Warrior, Nectaris: Military Madness* and *Panzer Bandit* got into my _TRY IMMEDIATELY!_ -list. I recently got a modded PS1 & a big stack of compatible CD-Rs. Fun times ahead; so thank you!

Excellent identification of "Sentinel Returns" - indeed it is a descendent of the old Geoff Crammond Beeb game (ported to, as you pointed out, many other 8-bit platforms). Sadly, it only has 512 levels, instead of the original's 10,000. I wouldn't say it's a sequel - it's essentially the same game, with the same mechanics. Just with much faster 3D and nicer texture work than the old 8-bits could handle. (Oh and a soundtrack composed by acclaimed horror film director John Carpenter). I spent many dozens of hours on this, yet so few people are aware it exists...

[@Horzuhammer]

@@GaryRetroGamer Whoa. I like the original Sentinel a lot, but you 100% had me at John Carpenter! I'm just a couple films shy from having seen every full-length movie he's ever done, and consider him one of my very favourite filmmakers. He also does very awesome music indeed, so this is definitely something I have to experience ASAP.

[@Horzuhammer]

@@GaryRetroGamer I'm glad I revisited this list a couple days ago - I'd missed couple pretty crucial ones the first time: - *C12: Final Resistance* - What a fun shooter with some nice graphics. Pretty damn advanced for a PS1-game. Ended up playing it a couple hours, and for sure gonna go on playing it. - *Terracon* - Described by many to be the best looking game on the PlayStation. Not sure if I'd go that far, but it's up there. Nice little action platformer. Played the tutorial, and got a feeling that it's gonna be a fun time. ...and last, but *DEFINITELY* not least; actually quite the opposite: - *Darkstone* - *!!!!* I got SUPER hyped just seeing those couple seconds of video. A pretty much bona fide Diablo-style western action-RPG that I can play lying on my couch! I might have close to ten hours on the game clock already. So far up my alley that it's almost in another dimension! A rather large downside though, is that saving the game takes fucking *SIX BLOCKS* from your memory card. Makes even Gran Turismo 2 look pretty conservative. What an absolute hog! Totally worth it though. I'm repeating myself; but seriously, thank you for making this video! Got it in my bookmarks now for future reference.

[@GaryRetroGamer]

Excellent choices! C12 was indeed quite impressive - but ended up getting missed out on by many because it was so late the machine's life cycle. I wasn't that impressed with Terracon myself - but Darkstone was loads of fun - and fairly graphically impressive too. I am glad you are finding this video useful, because this sort of discovery is exactly why I make them - so thank you very much for the kind words. (If you ever do move onto other platforms, like the PS2 or the SNES - I have similar videos for those...)

[@muhammadadib3801]

THANK YOU Ive been looking for the misadventures of tron bonne!!

[@drlongman6656]

gonna play all old great ps1 games in my phone forever!

[@DeltathRiylaan]

Team Buddies was one of the best multiplayer games ever made. I'd love to see a sequel or remake on modern consoles.

[@Sicdery]

hey guys i suggest u play countdown vampire, soul of samurai, silent bomber, urban chaos and sled storm !

[@deathtrap2672]

I had a blast playing Chaos Break back in the day , it's such an underrated game.

[@danieloliveira7650]

Nice list, reminded me of a few games I had forgotten and taught me about a few other great things. You still forgot Alundra tho

[@GaryRetroGamer]

Alundra is a great game! But I wouldn't consider it an "underrated/hidden gem" type game - it's actually on several other "Top 100 PS1 game lists" on my channel, so I didn't think it was right to put it here.

[@danieloliveira7650]

Fair enough. Where I live, the ps1 game market was loaded with fighting, racing-like and soccer games. I had to dig deep to find anything that actually appealed to me. That's how I found, Musashi, Alundra, and Tail Concerto and NO ONE HEARD OF THESE. I had no one to discuss these with at the time :')

[@GaryRetroGamer]

@@danieloliveira7650 Oh, that sucks. It was like that in the Xbox360/PS3 era - when all anyone ever played were war-based FPS games. Or today ... with PUBG/Fortnite :)

[@professorgerald6357]

Whats is the thumbnail game?

[@chainedunfree727]

Man what a list! I only like played 9 games from this video. Was gungauge a ps1 game? I was hoping to see it here. Now I wanna replay misadventures of tronbonne. Goodtimes

[@GaryRetroGamer]

Indeed it was! In fact, Gungage is on this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZqZhWV5q8x9mdU
